I am on the hunt for the best tamale I can find around here. Came across Tamale Queen food truck…read morein the neighborhood today, so of course I had to try it out. To get an accurate idea of how their tamales are, I ordered two plain tamales. Of course they were pre-made, so I got my food right away. The staff was very friendly and efficient! Took the tamales home and was digging into them within 10 minutes. I would definitely say they are above average. They tasted fresh and not grainy....but a little light on the flavor. The sauce that came with the tamales definitely helps and kicks the flavor up a notch. On that front, I would recommend getting at least a sauce per tamale ordered since the sauce container is so tiny. I ran out of the sauce before I even finished the first one! While my search for the best tamale around is not over, I would definitely order from Tamale Queen again the next time I run into them!

This taco truck came to our neighborhood recently, and we're hopeful it does so again. We've seen…read moreit around town, and it's always got several people at it. I guess people like it, and for good reason. We tried several tacos - steak, chorizo, pork, and chicken. All were good and tasty. We didn't get the onions, but it did come with radishes, cucumbers, and limes on the side. They charge extra for cheese, so we just put some shredded cheese on it once we got home. Each taco came double wrapped with tortillas. There are several other options on the menu I'd like to try next time they are in the neighborhood. Also, according to their FB reviews, they also have some menu specials such as shrimp tacos and quesadillas every so often, but weren't there when we went. Hopefully next time!

With that being said, I am a firm believer that the best tacos come from these hole-in-the-wall type places and Tacos Toluca definitely reinforces my long-standing belief. I opted for the birria tacos and I truly enjoyed them. I ended driving to.a park not far from this taco truck and I enjoyed my lunch there. All in all, I would definitely recommend Tacos Toluca and I will give this food truck five stars.

We placed our order and were given a pager to let us know when our order would be ready. We ordered queso birria tacos, chips and salsa and a chicken burrito. The quesa Birria tacos were good. Not great but good. There was a decent amount of beef but the tacos were not overly stuffed. The consommé or soup was a little oily but not bad. 4/5 The chicken burrito was very good. It had a good amount of meat and was seasoned well. 5/5 The chips and salsa were a disappointment. The chips were great. The salsa had way too much sugar. I ate two bites and stopped due to the high sugar content. I thought I had pics of the chips and salsa but I don't. 3/5 Overall my experience was good. I prefer Catrinas. 4/5

You can't really go wrong with a basic steak taco or quesadilla. This taco truck is in a convenient location with very reasonable prices. The service is friendly and attentive to each persons order. There isn't much seating if that's something you're looking for. As mentioned this is a good fast street taco spot. It's perfect for days you're on the go and want an affordable tasty takeout option. If you check out this spot let me know what you think. They have a wide variety of options on their menu. Don't forget to ask for their salsa verde. It's great and adds just the right amount of spice to your order. They also have soft drinks as well as jarritos. Overall I'd recommend and go back.
